Sweetgrass Productions: "Solitaire"

After two years of hiking, shooting, traveling, filming by hang glider, and skiing across South America. Sweegrass Productions is releasing their third film, "Solitaire." The trailer shows that, true to form, they've taken the time to absorb the culture of the Andes in addition to the ski culture.

Sweetgrass Productions isn't your average film company. Instead of shooting urban jibs and heli-fueled big mountain lines, they've made a name for themselves by filming in-depth portraits of human-powered ski culture, with a side of pow shots (see their last film "Signatures"). They've spent the past two seasons in South America shooting their 2011 production, "Solitare." Here's a behind the scenes look.

Every year KGB Productions shoots literally hundreds of hours of footage. And although they pour their heart and soul into every shot, in reality only 3 percent of it makes the final cut. The remaining 97 percent ends up on the Cutting Room Floor.
